Party Rock Anthem only it's played on kazoos
[Oscar is a practiced master at Coping (tm) in the face of things he would prefer not to address in any sort of healthy or rational manner. After the events of yesterday, he's somehow getting the feeling that he isn't the only one, which means that in his mind there is only one thing to do: this translates to yet another Walmart booze heist (even larger than the original), a few side trips to amass snacks because RIP his kitchen, and some haphazardly erected decorations in one of the spare rooms to try to at least give off something of a celebratory atmosphere... but let's be real here, this is just Misery x CPR x Reese's Puffs + alcohol.
Sunday morning will find handwritten notes tucked under everyone's doors inviting them to a party that evening, snacks and drinks (that particular word underlined a couple of times, just in case people didn't pick up on the meaning of "party") provided gratis.
There's alcohol, there's soda for the minors, there's plenty of junk food to eat, and there are a whole bunch of other people who are also Going Through It. What better recipe for a party could you ask for?
... don't answer that.]

...Was that too much? I truly am sorry; I did not realize how that might come off.

[He's the one who seriously thought he could strike out on his own like that. Stupid.]

[Mmm. Dorothy doesn't really know how she can help, but...man. Sometimes the alcohol just makes it easy to forget that Turo hasn't had any experience with humanity at all, at least in this regard.]
What do you consider your fault, dear?

I over-estimated my own capacities. Aesthetic sense is subjective, not the sort of thing a machine can comprehend.

Dorothy bites down the question of do you think we're not being genuine, because she's trying not to react like a child here, but Dorothy does turn that over in her head at least.]
...For what it is worth, I do not think you did that bad of a job for your first attempt. I imagine you went for something purple at least because it's familiar, correct?
Were you hoping for something a little more...explicitly complimentary, or is it a matter of having to partake in the game itself?

[More's the only one who actually gave him a rating, so he sort of just took the rest as unrelated feedback.]
Oh, no! I'm under no illusions about that. That doesn't matter - my appearance is really just the Professor's. [The only part he can choose are his clothes, which, well,]

I...see. I do believe I've completely misinterpreted what you were looking for in the first place. [Hrm...] Not that I'm exactly apt to give fashion advice, if that is what you're looking for. Goodness, my apologies.

It's nothing.
